I’m looking for some information from someone who has stopped ortho evra. What are the side effects? I was under the impression that the side effects were the same as in the pills. I was wondering what have been your experiences.

I got off of the Ortho Evra patch last year because it made me gain weight. At the time I stopped, it was only about 17 pounds, but just like when I tried the shot, I continued to gain weight, even after I stopped. I've gained a total of 38 lbs this time. I won't ever try this stuff again; I just have to wait until the hormones from the patch leave my system.
